This cd starts out as a great punk cd! Halfway through, it becomes disjointed and doesn't seem to be going anywhere. I recommend this for only diehard, hard-core (no pun intended!) NOFX fans......but, as an intro to the group, i'd recommend Punk In Drublic or Heavy Petting Zoo.

Damn, I'm a huge Nofx fan! There's never been a Nofx album I didn't like. Until now. I didn't hate this album but I'm not feelin it that much. Some good songs here and there. Some bummers in my opinion. Maybe it could grow on me but that's usually not the way it is with them. If you're just getting into Nofx check out there older albums like Ribbed, white trash two heebs and a bean, punk in drublic, etc...
March 26, 2008It's Good. I mean, it might not be as memorable of some of their older stuff. But sit on it for a bit. The lyrics are fun as usual, there are some awesome guitar riffs as well. Just like all of their albums, they are just fun to play and listen to. So many haters on here. It is a good album, even if it is not as good as some as the classics.
October 20, 2007They started out as a punk band that I didn't really like too much. After Ribbed they became very good. Now with this album they have become, dare I say, great? This is the second transformation of the band.
If you look at NOFX's previous albums, they have a couple of really good songs. Then some that, even though they are good, I just can't listen to too much. Every song on WIWC is better than many songs on their previous albums. They don't have the rough distorted sound they used to, but rather a more polished, more melodic sound. I know people will be yelling 'they sold out', but how can you sell out with a song like 'Leaving Jesusland'? As a matter of fact, this song is one of those that I listen to over and over again and wait to get tired of it. Some bands mature like spoiled milk, others mature like NOFX. And although I am so sick of Bush bashing (not that I like him, but just sick of hearing it) NOFX does it in a way that is so original, so intelligent and fun too. I used to like Heavy Petting Zoo the best. Now its this. One of the final lines in the CD talks about them going out after their prime. To me, they just hit their prime. I would do anything to hear the end of Instant Crassic!

and what we deserve is another album like this one from nofx. I own every one of nofx's albums, and i must say that i was surprised when i put "Wolves in wolves clothing" in my cd player because honestly i thought...new music all sucks this probably will too...NO!
Nofx seems to never get worse, but only better, even in their older age they still bring the rock. "wolves" is by far the most mature album, and anyone who claims to like punk whatsoever will fall in love with it.
Love them or hate them, you can't ignore the legacy that nofx is leaving 24 years in the making.
